After 1 1/2 years of not having a car I finally bought one!
I got a 1992 Mercedes Benz 190E 2.3 to make a 190 Evo II Cosworth replica and then drive it across Canada and the States hosting pop up car meets, cookouts, and shining the light in car culture everywhere I go.
My budget for the build is $20,000... only problem is I don't have $20,000 so I made these shirts. Every dollar made from them will go towards building the car and driving across the country.
Thanks to Steve at Riegel Tuning for helping me get my Car Inspected at His Continental Location: www.continentalautoservice.com/
Thanks to @MENClassics for selling me the headlights & parts from their 190e.
Thanks for joining me on this journey. If you’d like to support buy a shirt & share this video.

The reason nobody at the dealership knows what high mileage badges are anymore is because nothing they currently sell or have sold for the last couple decades is capable of reaching the miles necessary to get the badge 💀
People do leasing and after 2 years they give it back and get a new one
Exactly what I was thinking, big shame for modern Mercedes.
As someone who was in a similar situation with a rusty Subaru last year I would highly recommend doing the work your self. That and using junk yard parts will save you so much money. I started working on cars last January and have learned so much since then. There are so many great TH-cam videos on how to fix cars it's amazing. Doing the work myself and using junk yard parts probably saved me about $5000.
Im in the same situation. I removed everything on the underside of the car. Removed all the cladding. Removed engine, hvac. Spent last summer under the car with a sandblaster. Wes hot dirty work. Repaired the rust holes. Its now clean underneath, and waiting for all the new parts, and the M104.
Actually better to use a media blaster or dry ice for cleaning cars, unless you have rust. With sandblasting you can actually lose metal and everything else that’s actually fine to save. But what’s done is done, either way I wish you good luck on your build!
2:20 You are absolutely RIGHT, newer cars are made to last no more than 20 years!
Doug & the team are great, I was just there at Continental earlier with my 2003 SL55. Those older Mercedes are tanks, but there's nothing more expensive than a cheap Mercedes, even if it's a W123 or 190e. I'm down to help for free if you want 👍
I'm really invested in this series now
Well TH-cam led me here, and by coincidence My Wife and i have a '92 300E, and been self taught on this and have gone through all items you have identified to replace. A lot of TH-cam content available, obviously, and adding yours to the list. You can do all those repairs for half or better from the quoted costs. Subscribed! Best of luck!!
Can’t wait for the bodykit ❤
Some of these repairs are an opportunity to get custom parts for the new build anyway. You're gonna need new and upgraded brakes and suspension anyway if you wanna make a proper Evo II Replica.
Yes!
Check your transmission cooler lines that go from the radiator to the transmission. That is a common failure point and cause for transmission fluid leaks
thank you
My dad had ne of these, a manual one. Well maintained, the engines are indestructable. he sold his after almost 450 000 km on the clock.
i got a 2003 audi that i bought for 1k 265k miles on it , working on it and seeing it come to life is the greates feeling , and even with its faults i love driving it around know that i did all the work to it
build is gonna be crazy
Congrats on 300k Tj!
Well TJ, I know one thing. This thing is going to be probably one of the best car builds ever to hit the Car scene! I wish the best for you!
wow, thank you so much. That means so much for me. God bless you.
God bless you too!
Excellent video do it yourself it will cost less than half once your merchandise is ready let me know I will buy it anything to help & support
Bro ngl I just found your channel and instantly subbed. Can't wait to go to a meet if you come to Toronto.
I will brother!
If you can you should come to Victoria Vancouver island! Or shawnigan lake cuz that’s where I live!
I plan on coming as many places as people will let me stay.
Where did the body kit come from? Looking forward to seeing how the overall fit is. Seen a lot of horror videos about the Duraflex kits.
Don't worry I didn't buy duraflex...
Good luck in building it! If you do it yourself then it shouldn’t be as painful.
P.s. never knew about those badges though.
most people don't
Good decision. I just love Benz 190
thanks Andrew
hey man, i want to buy a t-shirt but i dont really like the color on it. Could you make a version with a black evo and black text? Good luck on fixing the 190 :)
Looking forward to this build did u say u was from UK if so were about im in Manchester
Surrey mate
you got this
thank you
these type of projects if you want to stick to a budget you need to do the work yourself. Buy aftermarket OEM parts or upgrade bits as you go.
Honestly you're better off stripping the car down yourself, and then take those $3.5k and take your bare shell to a competent body shop who can fix all of that rust in the engine bay, quarter panel, and front fenders. an evo 2 reproduction is extremely expensive, and theres no point in putting all those expensive bits on a rusted out shell that flakes like a saltine cracker. Fix the rust first and strip it down yourself, it might be really intimidating at first but taking stuff apart isn't nearly as bad as putting it back together, and when you have a clean shell you can focus full-time on the drivetrain. This route probably isn't very youtuber friendly though as it's boring, but at least it will be done proper.
This comment is real as fuck
@@alextheshrimp. thanks bro
would like to know where you ordered all your evo II parts from
that will be in the next video
Every classic MB is worth saving
Sounds like you need a complete tune up homie do it yourself
You're building an EVO 2 without the 2.5-16?
The higher power models are either far too expensive or too rare for him probably. However, maybe he could do a cool swap. I think a 5cyl from a Volvo or a 6cyl from another Mercedes would be dope. I think he's definitely in it for the body kit though!
I would love to put a 2.5-16 in
Drop in a Ford 2.3 Ecoboost & 6-speed for cheap@@magnacars
Someone at SEMA did that. Took his company 3 years... @@slcpunker
They used a 3.5L EcoBoost V6. You could use a 2.3 from a Mustang for cheap. @@magnacars
You are a braver man than I. 🤣
I just trust God it will work out if I try.
I wish I could help you with the rust repair and pulling the engine/Trans. but your time line is to short. I have always had a soft spot for the 190e and I really wanted a 2.3-16 when they first came out. I own a small shop in Calgary and I love doing oddball cars and trucks.If you have been up to Barlow or a few car shows you have probably seen my Pink Dodge D-50.Most of the stuff that was listed is standard old car stuff and can be either fixed or bought new on Rockauto and would not be that much if you did(or helped) with the repairs and cleaning. Over the years I have had young people who waned to get into cars show up at the shop and I have helped them learn about repairing and customizing their rides. One of my friends (former customer) is doing a full custom dash for his 78 280z that we just finished doing a remote mounted turbo system on.
Thank you for offering! That is awesome!
Sickkkk
instead of reading out the list after the other dude said the saying, maybe its too much editing, but if the list was on the screen it would be cool. its kinda hard to watch
🙌🙌🙌
Damn, I was looking at an ad in Calgary for a 190e with 56,000 original kms on it a couple months ago. They were asking 6k for it but never replied to me.
what color was it?
Looks like you need another car till your current car gets repaired.
niceee
Lol build it as an A$AP rocky style build, it won’t be too much I’m guessing.
I went through two of them, there's nothing more expensive than a cheap mercedes, though I enjoyed my 190es when they worked.
I can tell you with certainty yours needs a new catalytic converter if the precats are still on, I see it is straight piped otherwise.
The fuel distributor is also a pain and probably will need work.
Sounds like... "Never gonna give you up! Never gonna let you down!"
if i were you id find a more solid 190e to use as a base. Spending so much on a bodykit it would be a shame to put it on a rust bucket.
make the car Miami Blue #1
Use UV dye to find you leaks
FCP Euro, MB USA for parts
FCP Euro you can get most of the parts yourself
well this is very bad
thats one of the worst conditions ive seen a 190 in
all drivebelts ????? there is only one my friend and its a multibelt ...i am a mercedes mecanic with 40 years in the field
my mistake sorry
well in germany you would be arrested
driving this
good to know, thank God for Canada
AMG v12 swap
✌️
Throw it away
I mean get parts and fix it urself, a shop is always gonna charge tremendous amounts.
Plus a build done in a shop aint really your build.
The car worth 400 buks 😢
